Just because the MSM, most pundits, and Left associated blogs chose to ignore the Evidence showing Obama’s Literary Agent knew and published that Obama was born in Kenya, doesn’t mean that Americans and people worldwide aren’t aware of the issue now. Seeing is believing and people saw the publication’s biography and read that it was used until 2007 — just before Obama ran for the presidency. Whether he lied then or now, makes no difference. It is up to him to prove beyond a shadow of a birth certificate that he is eligible to run for the Office of the President. He has not shown any verifiable, forensically examined document to even prove he is American.

As our blog has shown, Obama has no social security number that is registered in his name; he can’t pass the government’s own E-Verify system. Obama has a forged Selective Service application and that by itself can prevent him from holding higher office, in fact any government job. Obama’s birth certificates, both of those shown on the internet, have been proven to be fraudulent as well. Dr. David James Manning and FOX news could not find anyone who knew Obama at Columbia where he said he graduated. Add to the phony documents Obama’s faked photo-shopped family photos, and this adds up to a Manchurian Candidate! Folks, we have no idea who the guy is that is occupying our White House.

He’s made history all right, as the biggest conman in the world. That will be his legacy. About 62+ Million people fell under his hypnotic spell. Were you aware that he used the techniques of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) to seduce voters? Think of that, 62,438,115 people cast their ballots for a man they knew zero about! They cried, swooned, and fainted over someone with absolutely no credentials, no experience, and no documents! The MSM crowned him, and photographers gave him spiritual auras. He was deemed a messiah. Songs and chants were created in his name. If they had peaked beneath the handsome suit he wore, they would have seen he was a nothing, a nobody. He was an empty suit and still is.

My Friends, the Good News is the issue of Obama’s birth place got a full viewing in the last two days. If people didn’t click on Drudge’s headlines, at least they read them. Wait until you see these numbers, and you will know what I mean. Our heartfelt thanks goes out to Breitbart’s group and to Matt Drudge for advertising the information.

This number was seen at 10:30 pm, May 18. I don’t know what time the references to Obama Born in Kenya disappeared from Drudge today. I do know they were still there at noon.

If nothing else, the pressure is mounting on Obama to prove himself here and abroad. Leaders worldwide will not trust him, and may take advantage of him. Obama is in a very awkward position with the world looking askance at him. We can be sure our enemies are feeling emboldened, and whatever allies we have left will pull away or start questioning. We would believe that our Congressmen should do their jobs and investigate.

Start sending letters and calling! Remind Representatives and Senators that they work for us. We pay their salaries. If they are up for election, challenge them to do their job. No investigation, no cash. Money does talk. After all, elections have consequences! Many are up for reelection, and they can choose to stand tall with the voters and patriots, and be willing to be branded as a big, bad birther, or they can be replaced by someone who will. They took an oath to protect our country against enemies foreign and domestic, and it is about time they damn well do it!

When Breitbart News published a story yesterday on the discovery of a 1991 publishers’ brochure that stated Barack Obama was born in Kenya, reporters scrambled to write their own stories.

Well, some reporters. Others just chuckled.
~

Establishment media abroad seemed far more interested in the background of Obama than American reporters.The Herald Sun wrote of the brochure: “The presidential campaign is already dominated by a divisive issue – gay marriage – but birther claims humming in the background will prove hard for Mr. Obama to avoid.”

The London Daily Mail said, “The simmering political row over President Obama’s heritage was dramatically reignited today as a 1991 booklet boldly announced that the Democrat was ‘born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii.’”

At the London Telegraph, Tim Stanley wrote, “It’s incredibly strange that the literary agent approached by Breitbart.com does not remember Obama calling the agency to register a complaint and make a correction.” Stanley said the bigger story would be why the “nugget” wasn’t part of the “wider discussion” about Obama during his first election campaign.

Back in the U.S., the Examiner’s Joe Newby pointed out that while the booklet was not proof of a Kenyan birth, observers said it fits a pattern of manipulation.

Erik Wemple blogged at the Washington Post, using one paragraph to mention the issue.

The story was mentioned on CNN’s website but only through a reader’s comment on a blog.

The Daily Oklahoman jumped into the fray with the report that Goderich was claiming the brochure was “a simple mistake and nothing more.”

The Daily Caller simply reported on the claim made in the brochure and Goderich’s insistence it was an error.“Since 2008, Obama himself has kept alive the question of where he was born, partly by making jokes about it in speeches and fundraisers. His campaign has also sold Obama-themed products show his birth certificate,” the report said.

At the left-leaning Media Matters for America, Simon Maloy took note of the controversy, writing, “The Breitbartlings claim they’re not publishing this as bait for the unkillable birther conspiracy, but rather because … well, even they don’t seem too sure.”

Other comments:

A Powerline blogger wrote: “We know for sure that Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, because it was announced in a local newspaper. But we also now know that for sixteen years, his literary agent circulated a bio that said he was born in Kenya.”
At the Atlantic Wire was the headline: “Breitbart’s Editors: Hey, We’re Not Birthers, But Maybe You Should Be.”
At International Business Times was: “His birthplace has been something of a sticking point since he received the Democratic nod for the presidency in 2008. Since then, a group of latent nonbelievers, termed ‘Birthers,’ have doubted the president’s citizenship and challenged his assertion that he was born in Hawaii.”

Breitbart News published a disclaimer at the beginning of its article stating its late founder, Andrew Breitbart, was never a “Birther” and Breitbart News “has never advocated the narrative of ‘Birtherism.’” Breitbart himself once characterized it as “not a winning issue.”

Yesterday news broke that in 1991 Barack Obama’s then literary agency wrote in his bio that he was born in Kenya, setting up what is surely to be another annoying pointless round of arguing the inarguable. Barack Obama is a United States citizen, period. What does this story mean and who does it help most?

******************
This morning, Glenn gave his take on what has been released and the reaction to it thus far.

Glenn, who has been pretty vocal about his opposition to the ‘birtherism’ movement since its start, wasn’t swayed in his opinion by the release of this document. Glenn saw the length this document was allowed to run inaccurately as more of an Elizabeth Warren type of move, where progressives try and make themselves more appealing by the the left’s love of multiculturalism.Obama was pumping up his ethnic connections for personal gain, probably unaware that his short term goal for recognition in 1991 would come back to haunt him among the birther movement.

For the past couple of weeks Glenn has been breaking news on Barack Obama’s “fairy tale life” and the inconsistencies in the stories he tells about it. “I think this verifies another piece of the storyline of what this guy will say and do,” Glenn said of the news that broke this morning. “He’s Elizabeth Warren to the thousandth power.”

Glenn explained that while he does not have a literary agent, he does have a speaking agent. Every year they publish a booklet, similar to the one that was released with President Obama’s biography, that goes out to all of the people, corporations, etc. that are looking for speakers.“I know that if somebody saw ‘Glenn Beck born in Bonne, Germany,’ we wouldn’t have called and gotten it pulled. It probably would have run for a year, but it wouldn’t have run for sixteen consecutive years,” Glenn said.

Glenn compared this to the Elizabeth Warren story that is currently in the news where she claimed she was a Native American for ten years. They think anything that is radical, diverse, international, etc. is “cool.” “That’s absolutely how they are. It’s a badge of honor if she’s a Native American,” Glenn said.

“Barack Obama wrote about this in in his book. He used the name Barack because it was cool,” Stu said.“It goes back to what we’ve been saying the last couple of weeks. The guy’s life story is fiction. It’s fiction,” Glenn said. “He’ll create anything he has to be create depending on who he’s with, what he’s doing, so he can fit in, and he can be the star. Is that unreasonable to believe?”

Well, they got one thing right Obama’s life is FICTIONAL. To bad they don’t research the meaning of NBC to completely understand this issue. They put blinders on at FOX, but on his own show you’d think they would be taken off!

Yep, I know. And they keep saying that the guy’s (BO’s) life story is fiction. Well, there…. they said it. Doesn’t that mean, then, that BO saying he was born in Hawaii is fiction? That’s a part of his life story.

How do we know he’s even a citizen? Did anybody vet him as a citizen when he first ran for office? I doubt it and he was allegedly using a fake SS#. Once he was accepted as a state senator, then a U.S. senator, there was NO VETTING. The FBI doesn’t vet POTUS candidates. Nobody does, apparently. What did he use to get his first driver’s license? Who knows? His fake Social Security card? A utility bill? A school ID? Oh, I’d love to see his school ID. Did he swear allegiance to the US; renounce his Indonesian, Kenyan, and British citizenships; and naturalize? If not, he may not be a citizen at all. It doesn’t matter, anyway, because the Constitution REQUIRES NATURAL BORN CITIZENSHIP. BORN IN THE USA TO TWO US CITIZEN PARENTS. PERSONS BORN IN KENYA NEED NOT APPLY.

You know, I’m almost as suspicious of people who pretend to have an open mind but who will NOT reconsider their previous stance in light of new EVIDENCE.

We have HIS WIFE saying he was born in Kenya. We have HIS STEP-GRANDMOTHER who says she was THERE when he was born in Kenya. We have the KENYAN parliament taking note of his birth in Kenya. We have multiple news articles stating he was Kenyan-born. We now have his own LITERARY AGENT saying for 16 years that he was born in Kenya. HE STEADFASTLY REFUSES TO PRESENT A CERTIFIED PAPER BIRTH CERTIFICATE TO A COURT, THE MEDIA, OR HIS EMPLOYERS FOR VERIFICATION.

I’m adding this to my comment: On the other side of the scale we have HIM saying that he was born in Hawaii, but he produces NO EVIDENCE to back it up. His sister can’t know, because she wasn’t born for nearly a decade. His mother, maternal grandmother, maternal grandfather, father, and paternal grandparents are ALL DEAD. (The only person left who might know is his step-grandmother and she said he was born in Kenya, until they locked her up.) EVERY STORY THAT STATES HE WAS BORN IN HAWAII IS BASED UPON HIS STATEMENT. We have two different birth hospitals in various news stories, but no hospital will take credit. And he won’t produce any PROOF to back up what HE and he alone SAYS.

btw, on his mother’s side of the family, we have a great-aunt who says her niece died in 1970 and that’s why he went to Hawaii to live with her half-brother Stanley Dunham. So it’s safe to say that either she’s mistaken and she knows very little about his life OR she’s right and he’s lying.

We also have Neil Abercrombie who claimed in one story to have seen SAD bring the baby to the U of Hawaii, except it’s proved that Ann was in Seattle with baby Barry. Then he changed his tune and said he first saw Barry when he played t-ball. We also have the DEBUNKED woman who claimed to have remembered his name as spoken to her one day over lunch at a club, by the doctor who delivered him. And yet, that doctor ISN’T the doctor named on the birth certificate AND that doctor didn’t practice then. Not at either of the hospitals alleged to have been his place of birth. Lies, all lies, damned lies, and nobody can keep the variations straight. A tangled web of LIES.

Miri,
I don’t understand how Glenn Beck can’t understand this. Unless it’s that he was one of the ones threatened early on. This was being checked out by Sheriff Joe & his investigators.

Then the birth announcement part is hilarious too. My idea is that they are ignorant of what’s been found out about the announcements. It’s like someone saying something over and over again, then people use that for evidence, yet they don’t check it out even to see if it’s truth. Actually it’s just being repeated, people that write stories say it, might sound good to them, but it’s a huge flat-out lie. Once they decide to check it out, if they do, they find out that it’s fake.

Nobody knows who the person was who was announced in that announcement. All they know is that it’s a son of one of the many wives (unnamed) of BHO Sr. He had at least 3 wives, from our count: Kezia, Stanley Ann, and another wife in the Philippines who could not BE Stanley Ann. So which “Mrs.” was the mother of that “son” and which “son” was it who was born in Hawaii?

A real article written in 2008, and the NYSlime says Obama got a call from Jane Dystel. Would Jane be associated in any way with Ms. Liesalot who said she was his literary agent at the company called Dystel? You know the Dystel Client List that we saw in the Wayback Machine that shows Obama as a client! An unknown having such skills to be contacted by Ms. Dystel, is truly amazing. Who is Jane Dystel?

“In the New York Times account of the Obama book’s background,
Mr. Obama’s story first surfaced publicly in February 1990, when he was elected as the first black president of The Harvard Law Review. An initial wire service report described him simply as a 28-year-old, second-year student from Hawaii who had “not ruled out a future in politics”; but in the days that followed, newspaper reporters grew interested and produced long, detailed profiles of Mr. Obama.

The coverage prompted a call to him fromJane Dystel, a gravelly-voiced literary agent described by Peter Osnos, then the publisher of Times Books, as “a good journeyman with a hard edge.” The home page of her firm’s Web site currently features clients’ best sellers including “Lies at the Altar: The Truth About Great Marriages.” Ms. Dystel suggested Mr. Obama write a book proposal.Then she got him a contract with Poseidon Press, a now-defunct imprint of Simon & Schuster. When he missed his deadline, she got him another contract and a $40,000 advance from Times Books.”

Miriam Goderich and Jane Dystel have been partners since 1995 and they work closely as an agenting team to generate book ideas, help create book proposals, place projects with publishing companies, and negotiate all contracts pertaining to publishing and subsidiary rights. In addition, Miriam is an insightful editor who has been responsible for discovering and working on a number of first novels…..

Miriam received a BA in Comparative Literature and an MA in English from ****Columbia University. She was born in Cuba and, prior to settling in the New York area, lived in Spain and Miami, Florida. Currently, she resides just outside the City with her husband and son, two dogs, and a parrot.

Jane Dystel, President, has been an agent since 1986. Her publishing career began at Bantam Books. She then moved to Grosset & Dunlap, where she was a managing editor and later an acquisitions editor. From there, she went on to become Publisher of World Almanac Publications, where she created her own imprint.

When she joined the agency that would soon become Acton and Dystel, Inc., she quickly developed a reputation for honesty, forthrightness, hard work, and real commitment to her authors and their writing careers. In 1994, with a growing roster of clients, she founded Jane Dystel Literary Management, which became Dystel & Goderich Literary Management in 2003.

Born in Chicago, Jane grew up in Rye, New York. She is the daughter of publishing legend, Oscar Dystel, who is currently a consultant for DGLM. In her teens, she was an accomplished figure skater. Jane received her BA from New York University and attended Georgetown law school for one year before leaving for her first job in publishing. She has an abiding interest in legal subjects.

She is married to Steven Schwinder and has a daughter, Jessica, and a son, Zachary. She lives in New York City with her family and two dachshunds and is a tenacious golfer.

Jane Dystel: Book Publishing in the Next 10 Years – GalleyCat
January 6, 2010 8:23 AM
PHOTOVeteran agent, Jane Dystel of Dystel & Goderich Literary Management, best known for discovering Barack Obama, weighs in on the changes in the book publishing by giving GalleyCat her predictions for the industry in the next 10 years.

Jane D. Dystel, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Dystel of Purchase, N.Y., was married at her home in New York yesterday to Steven Gary Schwinder, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Schwinder of Miami Beach, Fla. Rabbi Gary Bretton-Granatoor officiated.

Ms. Dystel, who will retain her name, is a literary agent with the Edward J. Acton Literary Agency in New York. She graduated cum laude from New York University and attended the Georgetown University Law Center. Her two previous marriages ended in divorce. Her father, a former president and chairman of Bantam Books, is president of Oscar Dystel & Partners, a publishing consultant in White Plains.

Mr. Schwinder, a training instructor with Dean Witter Reynolds in New York, graduated from Syracuse University. His father is the retired president of the Schwinder Company, a manufacturing concern in Newark.

Only thing I can find is that Lisa Jack the photographer was originally from Rye. She is the one that held on to those precious photos of BHO smoking dope until after he was Selected. She attended Occidental.

“The real significance of the Breitbart revelation that Obama’s literary agency promoted him as a Kenya-born author in 1991 is that it demonstrates that up-and-comer Barack Obama was going around until at least 2004 claiming Kenyan birth as a way to make his biography more exotic and appealing. There is no plausible explanation of how the literary agency came to believe Obama was born in Kenya, other than that Obama told that to his agency. They could not make a mistake “fact checking” without an initial fact to check. Only Obama could have supplied such information.

Mainstream media bigwigs write books, have literary agents, and are very familiar with the process by which promotional materials are put together. They know Obama gave his agent this information. The point isn’t that Obama was born in Kenya, the point is that he made up stuff about his background and peddled the lie for career advantage. Just like Elizabeth Warren. … Critics who doubt the truthfulness of his assertions about his background are immediately accused of racism. The most dramatic instance is the deployment of the term “birther” to characterize inquiry into the anomalies of the campaign-promulgated story of his birth, such as identifying two different Honolulu hospitals as its location, and providing an electronic image of the purported long form birth certificate that has been shown to be a fraud. This taboo was so powerful it was adopted by many of the most prominent conservative commentators and publications.

The American people are in the process of re-evaluating Barack Obama in preparation for November. The image sold to them in 2008 was a phony, and most of them realize it. If the mainstream media think they can keep the cofferdam intact, they are mistaken. After Drudge featured it, the game was lost. Talk radio is full of this story today, and that means a critical mass of Americans are informed and want to talk about this.”

I beg to differ. There’s NO WAY this was a fantasy promulgated by him in order to make himself look exotic, just like Warren. If that’s true, then WHY DID HE NOT PRODUCE THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE? NOBODY KNEW ABOUT THAT BROCHURE UNTIL YESTERDAY. Yes, we want to talk about it but we want the TRUTH, not MORE LIES and COVER STORIES and RATIONALIZATIONS. His first story was the truth. The Hawaiian birth is the lie. That’s the ONLY way to explain why instead of producing this birth certificate that would PROVE his eligibility, instead he spend millions and sent LTC Lakin to PRISON to avoid showing it.

“We’ve always known that the original birthers were Democrats. Phillip Berg, a disgruntled Hillary supporter, filed the first lawsuit demanding that Obama produce his mysterious birth certificate. And now with the blockbuster news from Breitbart.com, we learn that Obama himself was the very first Obama birther.

It turns out that Obama claimed he was Kenya-born before he claimed he was Hawaii-born.

“The great thing about irony,” writes David Foster Wallace, “is that it splits things apart, gets up above them so we can see the flaws and hypocrisies[.]” … In the publishing world, it’s commonplace for authors to control their own bios. In the unlikely scenario that Obama didn’t approve the text, would the agency have continued to list Obama as Kenya-born until 2007 on its website? Well, it did, and no one corrected the record until Obama’s presidential aspirations became apparent. …

If Obama didn’t provide the birth information, the question then becomes: where did the information come from in 1991? How did Goderich misidentify Obama’s birthplace? [Same place they got his mom’s name as Shirley?] …

Only one thing is certain. It is high time to put the rumors to rest. And there is only one way to put them away: simple compliance with the legal standard for the production of documents.

It would be no great distraction or burden for Obama to produce certified paper copies of his birth certificate for interested state election officials and make the original available for on-site corroboration and authentication.

Clerks could send certified copies out in a week, and the original could be inspected by state officials shortly thereafter.

It is in both the national interest and frankly in Obama’s best interest to actually produce his birth certificate.”

The guy presented his parents as a brilliant scholar from Kenya and a wandering world-traveler anthropologist and his childhood one of exotic destinations abroad. I find it to be a RIDICULOUS conclusion that he needed the “born in Kenya” story to make him “more interesting” and I really can’t believe anyone actually believes that. It is NOT the same as Elizabeth Warren! He’s already established himself as a minority.

“Yesterday, I got an email from a woman named Sandy who had read something online called “Warren Witch Hunt.”

Don’t you love it? If Scott Brown were caught “checking the box” and backing up fake minority status by lifting alleged old Indian recipes from the New York Times [NYT], it would be “speaking truth to power.” Go after a liberal, and it’s a “witch hunt.” Or a distraction.

“It is incredible to me,” said Sandy, “that any(one) would stoop to searching the Recipe Files of a candidate in an effort to prove dishonesty.”

Sandy, baby, she started it. Nobody heard of “Pow Wow Chow” until “Elizabeth Warren — Cherokee” cited it as proof of her Indian heritage, of which she has none. These are supposed to be old Indian recipes. They’re not that old, they’re not Indian, and they’re not hers. And I repeat, she … is … not … an … Indian.”

At this point, I no longer care, I just want it over. his fiction has become too big of an distraction to even fix the problems he caused. Vote him out in November. Let’s stop all the class warfare. It is so un American.

Renee wondered earlier on this thread about why this agent brochure appeared now and who leaked it. I wondered the same thing, as I know many of you did as well.

While pondering this piece of the puzzle, I remembered a chapter in Jack Cashill’s book, “Deconstructing Obama”.

Just a short set up: Jane Dystel got obama his first contract and an advance of $125,000. He didn’t finish the book. Simon & Schuster cut him loose, but let him keep the money because obama pled massive student loan poverty, even though he and Michelle were making well into the six-figures. Dystel got him another contract and another $40,000 advance. “Dreams” was born. He made millions and Dystel got her 15% commission.

After being elected to Congress, obama bypassed Dystel and signed a deal with Crown Publishing to publish “Audacity”, using a by-the-hour attorney. He screwed her out of $500,000.

Cashill attempted to contact Dystel when he was researching the book. This is what he wrote at the end of the chapter titled, Conspiracy Commerce: “Dystel did not return my email or my subsequent phone call. Nor has she spoken publicly on this subject with anyone else. Hell, I am told, hath no fury like an agent scorned, but Dystel, to Obama’s good fortune, has held her tongue.”

Hell hath no fury and it’s expensive to live in NYC. Taxes are high and might just get higher on someone in her tax bracket. $500,000, huh?

Ken Bennett is Arizona’s Secretary of State, he’s been waiting for 8 weeks for nothing more than an e-mail back from Hawaii verifying Obama’s b/c to place Obama on Arizona’s ballot this is the response received from Hawaii today 5/18. Hawaii: Arizona’s Secretary of State needs to prove he legitimately needs confirmation of The Presidents birth records….UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Hawaii responds to birth record request

Hawaii is telling Ken Bennett he needs to prove he legitimately needs confirmation of The Presidents birth records.
The Associated Press

The attorney general’s office in Hawaii is telling Arizona’s secretary of state that if he wants confirmation of President Barack Obama’s birth records, he’ll have to prove he legitimately needs it.

Special Assistant Joshua Wisch said late Friday that Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett hasn’t done that despite numerous email and phone exchanges between their offices.

Wisch says Hawaii state laws require Bennett to show legal authority that this office needs the records to update its official lists as part of its ordinary work.

(KFYI) Arizona Secretary Of State, Ken Bennett, came on The Mike Broomhead Show to talk about how if the state of Hawaii does not verify President Obama’s Birth Certificate, there is a possibility that the state of Arizona will NOT put Obama’s name on the ballot. [5/18 recorded earlier in the day? Bennett said he had not heard back from the State of HI]

And you know what? I think the ball is in Arizona’s (and every state’s) court. Hawaii doesn’t HAVE to do anything, but if BHO wants to be on anyone’s ballot HE needs to provide valid documentation. AZ should just say, fine, don’t be on our ballot, we don’t care.

OBAMA-ARIZONA BALLOT

Hawaii to Ariz.: Prove need to verify Obama birth

PHOENIX (AP) – The attorney general’s office in Hawaii is telling Arizona’s secretary of state that if he wants confirmation of President Barack Obama’s birth records, he’ll have to prove he legitimately needs it.

“Most Republican critics of Obama have given up pushing widely discredited long-running allegations that he was not born in the United States.
…
The White House has denied repeated claims that Obama was not born in the United States.

In April 2011, Obama released a longer version of his birth certificate to try to put to rest speculation that he was not born in the country as required by the U.S. Constitution to become president.
…
The move reviving the birther controversy by Bennett – who is the state’s elections chief – met with a weary response from local Democrats on Friday.
“Tea Party Republicans are at it again,” Luis Heredia, the executive director of the Arizona Democratic Party, told Reuters.

“By catering to right-wing extremists, Bennett is trying to score cheap political points while sacrificing common sense. Arizona deserves better. It is time to move our state forward.””

By catering to right-wing extremists. Don’t you just love it! because we right wing “extremists” follow the Constitution Of The Untied States and the letter of the law were extremists! on a personal note – Luis Heredia, kissa my ;-)

Any time they say something’s a distraction or that we need to “move … forward” or “move on” (as in MOVEON, which was founded during the Lewinsky scandal, when they popularized that meme) then we KNOW they have NOTHING TO REFUTE THE ALLEGATIONS AND SO MUST DISTRACT, DEFLECT, AND CHANGE THE TOPIC. As in the Lewinsky incident, the allegers were RIGHT and Clinton was LYING. He and his wife, both LYING. It was no “vast right wing conspiracy.” It was the TRUTH. But Move On wanted only a slap on the wrist and NOT impeachment, despite the proof that that other POTUS had also lied to the American people.

President Obama’s birth certificate continues to make headlines in ways he doesn’t want.

The latest: Arizona’s top elections official is trying to explain why he’s seeking to verify the document before placing Obama on the November ballot.

Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett, a Republican exploring a 2014 race for governor, issued a statement insisting he is not a “birther,” the word he and others use for those who believe Obama was not born in the United States and is not legitimately president.Bennett told a radio interviewer yesterday it was “possible” he would keep Obama off the ballot if the issue isn’t resolved.
~He went on to explain that he had been trying for eight weeks to verify Obama’s certificate and was surprised by how challenging it has been to get a response from Hawaii officials.

As someone said at Free Republic: The HDOH says AZ needs to cite authority for why they need the information; then the media report, in lockstep, that the HDOH has confirmed his birth in Hawaii many times. One has to wonder: UNDER what authority did they break their own supposed law to make that statement? Answer is that they NEVER did in the first place because the media are lying. NOBODY in HAWAII has EVER VOUCHED for that “birth certificate.”

Thank you for your letter of May 18. The request from my office for the State of Arizona needs no further clarifying. Again, please send the original, certified, verified documentation for Barack Hussein Obama as previously requested.

Since you inquired, the Secretary of State serves as Chief Election Officer for the State and certifies candidates and measures (initiatives and referenda) to the ballot and certifies election results. The laws confirming this information can be found at [ ]. For your convenience, a copy of the page is attached.

Our ballots will be printed on [date]. If the documents for Barack Obama are not in our office before then, Mr. Obama’s name will not be on the Arizona presidential ballot. There must be time for processing between receipt of the documents and the printing date. One week should be sufficient, so the due date that those papers should be in our office is [date]. May I suggest they be sent Federal Express.

If you have any further questions, please contact the nominee, Barack Hussein Obama. I believe you have his telephone number and address available. The two of you can decide if Arizona’s 10 Electoral votes are important enough that original official records should be submitted.

Our Constitutional laws are crystal clear on the issue of Natural Born Citizen, and I will uphold the US Constitution according to the oath I took when I was elected to this office, and for the voters of Arizona.

As I am sure Mr. Obama will agree, your cooperation in this very important matter is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Ken Bennett
AZ Secretary of State and
Chief Election Officer

*************
2nd draft

Dear Johua:

You are kidding aren’t you? I am the guy who will certify Obama’s elgibility for Arizona according to the U.S. Constitution and the laws of AZ.

Let me be perfectly clear, send the original documents, or the guy’s name isn’t on the AZ presidential ballot.

They sound as if they’re deliberately citing the wrong provision of their law with regard to who is eligible for a verification. They cite the one about government entities that maintain lists. But the next one is the correct one: That AZ Sec. of State needs the evidence in order to process an application to be on the AZ ballot. They’re just stalling and trying to run out the clock. It’s certainly in the Sec. of State’s power to keep him off the ballot. He should call their bluff and DO IT.

Well, it’s simple then. They will not confirm, so he should show them why he “needs” it. btw, he doesn’t need it–OBAMA NEEDS IT. If he doesn’t prove to the AZ Sec. of State that he’s eligible, then he doesn’t belong on the ballot. It’s as simple as that. If said candidate wants to be on the ballot, then all he has to do is what he could and should have done 4 years ago (since his LFCOLB IS legitimate after all) and that is to authorize Hawaii to release directly to the AZ Sec. of State a CERTIFIED COPY OF HIS ORIGINAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE. It sounds as if the delay in the response was because they hadn’t received the text of their response from Barry’s lawyers yet.

“No sooner did the literary agency brochure in which Barack Obama was said to be Kenyan-born surface than the media went to work to deep-six it.

“This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me – an agency assistant at the time,” Miriam Goderich, now a named partner in the literary agency, Dystel & Goderich, wrote in an emailed statement to Yahoo News, which was then picked up ABC News. “There was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more.”
…Former publisher Tom Lipscomb does not buy Goderich’s explanation for a New York minute. “As someone who has run a number of top bestseller publishers, I think this is an amazing MIRACLE,” writes Lipscomb emphatically on Power Line. “It is the ONLY case I have ever heard of in which an editorial assistant INVENTED a biographical detail. I have heard of typos, wrong dates, misspellings of names. But to pick a really weird country of origin like Kenya for an author?””

And to pick it sixteen years prior to the formation of the so-called “birther movement!” Are we to believe that Goderich knew 16 years ago that he might need some Alinsky meme to help him when he ran for potus and wanted to muzzle opponents with a cry of “racism” because nobody else has ever questioned where other presidential candidates were born?

I’m just an editor of a Law Review, but for what it’s worth, there’s usually a little asterisk footnote by the author’s name and the footnote has a little blurb about the author or the author’s thank you to whoever. We get the information from the author or, if the author didn’t write it themselves because it just says something mundane like their current professorship, it goes to the author for review approval or changes. NOTHING gets published without having been approved by the author.

That’s what most people in the publishing business say, too, except for the one chosen to take the fall–Goderich. But they’re saying that the heads of the company say Barry was born in Hawaii. They are all citing an article about him when he became law review editor (or whatever he was) and THAT article is itself based upon WHAT HE TOLD THEM. Are we supposed to believe that he presented the writer with his birth certificate to prove that he was born in Hawaii or that the reporter did a “fact check” to make sure that one fact was accurate? I’d be willing to bet that most reporters take someone at his word when he mentions his birth place. The school would probably KNOW where he was born because he (maybe?) had to provide a birth certificate when he applied and they’d also know if he was there as a foreign student/citizen. Of course, the schools ALL cover for him. If his records said he was born in Kenya but some article in the paper said Hawaii, is the school going to call the reporter to set the record straight? I doubt it.

the pretense is that birther’s are crazy about where he was born when in fact Americans just want a Natural Born Citizen as their presider. meaning a full blooded American citizen at the head of The Table.

who cares where he was born. he claims his father was a foreigner and his mom paraded around the world like an ex-pat. bogus potus. dangerous.

“He’s made history all right, as the biggest conman in the world. That will be his legacy. About 62+ Million people fell under his hypnotic spell. Were you aware that he used the techniques of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) to seduce voters? Think of that, 62,438,115 people cast their ballots for a man they knew zero about! They cried, swooned, and fainted over someone with absolutely no credentials, no experience, and no documents! The MSM crowned him, and photographers gave him spiritual auras. He was deemed a messiah. Songs and chants were created in his name. If they had peaked beneath the handsome suit he wore, they would have seen he was a nothing, a nobody. He was an empty suit and still is.”

“How Much Do Americans REALLY Know About Obama?- Michelle Fields – Sean Hannity – 5-18-12″

Well, that one is all over the place, isn’t it? Several things that were interesting: He does look like the dictator of Indonesia AND as a child in that Indonesian class (IF THAT’S BARRY), he also does look like that Asian woman on the tarmac with BHO Sr. and STAN the gramps, as BHO Sr. leaves for wherever. He’s a chameleon. A “blank slate”, just as he said.

RWE Dunham was a handsome and philandering traveling salesman who lived in Kansas, just over the border from Nebraska, where the Little family lived and Malcolm Little was born. This would explain why Barry looks like Malcolm X as well as Stanley Armour Dunham.”

So, in a nutshell: Have you identified who Soebarkah, H. is? Male? Female? A biography?

No unfortunately we haven’t because we cannot seem to get any help researching it. But I’m sure some other site buy now is doing the research on this Soebarkah, H. and they will let us know when they do find out who this person is.

Much of what the country ought to know about Obama, but does not, is hidden–often in plain sight–yet the mainstream media covers it up or spins it away to protect him.

~
The image above–never before released–is from public records at Columbia Universitythat prove that Obama did, in fact, graduate in 1983 from the Ivy League school. Contrary to some conspiracy theories, Obama was a student within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences–not the less selective, “nontraditional” Columbia University School of General Studies (which only merged with the Faculty of Arts and Sciences in 1990).

This never-before-seen document debunks a persistent myth that is unfairly unfavorable to the President. Some “fact-checking” websites–such as snopes.com and FactCheck.org–have attempted to debunk the “Obama never graduated Columbia” conspiracy theory before. Yet they have relied almost entirely on secondary sources and mainstream media reports, which fail to cite primary sources. And the Obama campaign has not provided details of his admission to, or graduation from, the prestigious Ivy League school.

Whether Obama’s college transcripts, or the documents in the Fast and Furious scandal, the time for excuses and evasions is over.

Call me really skeptical with this release from Breitbart. Mainly because no evidence of Obama attending Columbia was found by Dr. Manning. Breitbart says it was a “PUBLIC RECORD”? They say information is easily found…REALLY?? More information than a little piece of paper is needed. This reminds me of the birth index changes. Where did they get it and how do we know it is official? How lucky that BHO’s name is right at the bottom of the list. Will Dr. Manning please weigh in. Can’t anyone take a decent photograph? This doesn’t mean squat to me.

He went into hiding at Columbia to get his grades up – isn’t that the story? Or were his courses taken elsewhere and not on the Columbia campus? How does that paper prove he was there and graduated?

And time for those at Breitbart to just present the information and not worry about who will label them – i.e., disclaimers and worries that their peers might think they are birthers. Perhaps if they look at the information objectively, they might come to the “right” conclusion.]

“Matt Welch: So tell us what we should know about Barack Obama that we don’t?

Wayne Allyn Root: I think the most dangerous thing you should know about Barack Obama is that I don’t know a single person at Columbia that knows him, and they all know me. I don’t have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia. Ever!”
…
“Welch: Were you the exact same class?

Root: Class of ’83 political science, pre-law Columbia University. You don’t get more exact than that. Never met him in my life, don’t know anyone who ever met him. At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, 20th reunion, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack! Who was he, and five years ago, nobody even knew who he was.

Other guy: Did he even show up to the reunion?

Root: I don’t know! I didn’t know him. I don’t think anybody knew him. But I know that the guy who writes the class notes, who’s kind of the, as we say in New York, the macha who knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him. Is that not strange? It’s very strange.”

Not to mention: Anybody with a computer and the time can generate such a list, print it out, and then scan it. We could, if we’re gluttons for punishment, vet everybody else on that list, but if it’s bogus one can assume they carefully did their research. As I said, no title or date. WHY? It’s not even clear that this is a list of people with Bachelor’s Degrees FROM Columbia. It says at the top something about the faculty. Does it clearly tell you that he is a graduate of Columbia?

What does it look like to you? A page from a book? Nope.

A computer printout as you’d see from the ’80s when he graduated? Nope.

It looks like a printout on a laser printer or at least one connected to a computer. So given that the staff of Columbia has always been complicit in hiding his records, are we to TRUST if this is something printed out in response to a request?

We KNOW how simple it is, as you said, Bridgette, to add a record to a database in order to insert someone’s name in a computer-generated list or index. This is NOT a transcript. NOR is it an original document. A printout from a database means little.

What would be PROOF would be a contemporaneous transcript. It looks like either thin paper because you can read other names through it, or it’s a printout on a printer that has a problem and is shadowing other names from the next page onto it’s page. Could it be from a book? Doesn’t look like it to me. If so, it would be bending over towards the binding. Just what we need: Breitbart playing Savannah-Guthrie-like games, too.

Why the clever cropping? No DATE on the top. No full title of the report. Scanned on an angle so any asterisks next to Barry’s name are cropped away, if any existed. No explanation for the asterisks. No II after his name. So like WND also does with images–no links, no source, closely cropped. No explanation for where they got this “public record” so results can be replicated and expanded upon.

Trying to refresh my memory but wasn’t one of those writers at Breitbart married to some liberal? I have a faint recollection of the guy being on CNN, and he was arguing with a woman anchor, Soledad O’Brien. She didn’t know what she was talking about, and he did a great job of making his point. I can see him in my mind’s eye.

Found it! It was JOEL POLLACK and he was discussing Critical Race Theory. Now I have to find how I know he is married to a lib.

OK, bad memory. I don’t know if she is a liberal, but she is black and he is white. The people on CNN’s panel tried to pull the race card on him and make him look like he was a white racist…and they didn’t know he was married to a black woman.

Joel Pollak is a legal researcher and author from Skokie, Illinois. He immigrated with his family to the U.S. from South Africa in 1977 and became a U.S. citizen in 1987. He attended Solomon Schechter Day School and Niles North High School, where he graduated first in his class in 1995. He was also captain of the swimming team, president of the math team, and an All-State Scholar-Athlete.

Joel went on to Harvard, where he was the first student to combine the fields of Social Studies and Environmental Science and Public Policy.

After 9/11, Joel became involved in working to improve relations between Muslims, Christians and Jews. He lived with a Muslim family for two years and took Arabic classes, all while leading services at a local Orthodox Jewish synagogue. While defending Israel strongly, he also wrote extensively on ideas for reviving the Israeli-Palestinian peace process

They could EASILY show the entire page via a link AND they could link to or explain the SOURCE of this “public document”. Where it came from and how. If they sent somebody to Columbia to ask, that’s important to know because nobody else has managed to get anything out of them. If it was given to them by an informer, that’s important to know, too. Source lends credibility to the information. If it’s a public document, then that means others could be able to go see it, too, and analyze it. Why show only a snippet? It’s always frustrating to me when WND does the same thing.

More interesting than the WH response is that the WH is responding through Attack Watch! Their newest right arm website for propaganda. This leaves the WH in the clear with whatever is written. This takes the place of the infamous Fight the Smears website from 2008. If Obama were honest, he wouldn’t need such an outfit to twist the words. So far I am not impressed with the writers at Breitbart. They are a bunch of Woosies.(is that racist?).

Though it quickly became an Internet punchline, Attack Watch should not be dismissed. Attack Watch is paid for and an extension of Obama for America, which is part of BarackObama.com, the online campaign hub for the White House. That means that the Obama campaign itself has decided to comment on the Breitbart News’ exclusive surrounding a 1991 booklet published by President Obama’s literary agency that falsely claimed the President was born in Kenya. It’s also worth noting that this claim extended to the lit agency’s website until 2007, two months after Obama announced his candidacy for president.

What’s fascinating about the Obama campaign’s response is the many questions it leaves unanswered:

The spin starts here! Attack Watch has the WH Response. The ultimate name…THE TRUTH TEAM! What a joke!
****Latest attack about the President’s birthplace ignores the facts on record

The disreputable, right-wing site Breitbart.com has a history of making inflammatory and discredited attacks on President Obama. Now, they’re citing an errant work to push the false idea about President Obama’s public image while drudging up the birther conspiracy.

TRUTH TEAM [Oh yeah, the truth from Attack Watch. Count on it!]

Claim: Breitbart bloggers claim the President was trying to “manipulate his public persona” by citing an “errant” 1991 literary booklet describing him as being born in Kenya. While senior management of the website state that they know the President was born in Hawaii, they blame the media for refusing to examine his “carefully crafted persona.” The birther website WND is now trying to use Breitbart.com’s story as “proof” of their now well-debunked myth that President Obama was not born in the United States.

Fact:The Breitbart bloggers chose to ignore the very clear facts that belie their claim.

The literary agent who put together the 1991 pamphlet in question noted that, “there was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii.” The mistake in the pamphlet was the result of “nothing more than a fact checking error” by the agent.

Despite the Breitbart bloggers’ claim that the booklet was an attempt to manipulate some carefully crafted persona, numerous news outlets had already reported the President as Hawaiian-born. A year before the pamphlet’s release in 1991, a New York Times article on Barack Obama’s election to head the Harvard Law Review reported correctly, “Mr. Obama was born in Hawaii.”

Breitbart bloggers make names for themselves by launching outlandish and highly-ridiculed attacks on political figures. One of the site’s editors said that the President was”our first ideological Muslim President” and called him an “anti-semitic son of a bitch.” Recently, the site even tried to claim that the President was a radical simply because he hugged one of his professors.

This latest claim is just one more in the sites’ series of manufactured attacks.

Andrew would never apologize or snivel. so he’s not there. its apparent.
brietbart’s been clocked and shoked. here’s crap that we don’t want your lying eyes to believe, just in case you hear about it elsewhere.

The claim of “error” made by the literary agent is a bald faced lie. contrived.

This article has a pretty comprehensive list of links at the end. The writer reports that Mark Steyn, who I ordinarily love, is glomming onto the meme that Barry lied when he said he was born in KENYA because it’s more exotic than saying in Hawaii. But if true, that doesn’t explain why he won’t release the proof of his Hawaiian birth NOW. Nor does it explain why they scrubbed his passport files, his MOTHER’S pre-1965 passport records, AND the entries into the US during the week of August 1-8, 1961. Some also say that maybe he invented the Kenyan birth in order to use it to get financial aid for college, because recent decisions in the US prevented race alone from being used to admit less-than-stellar students. If so, then he’d NEED a BC that said he was born in Kenya. So what if he had his BC amended to state place of birth as Kenya? Is that possible? Brown Deer, over at Free Republic, stated that Hawaii is mentioned 40 times in Dreams from My Father, but NONE of the mentions involve him stating that he was BORN there. Isn’t that odd, if true? I’ve never read his book; couldn’t stand to read it. But I’ve searched it on Google books. Is it truly possible that his memoir, his “auto”biography doesn’t even mention where he was born? It does mention a birth certificate, but not what it said. So we have a 1990 news article (all others are derived FROM it) that says he was born in Hawaii to “Ann”, and we have a 1991 biography that he likely wrote or provided the “facts” for, which says he was born in Kenya. Exactly WHY we need some PROOF now.

Woosies.(is that racist?) LOL Bridgette! no, I think your okay with using the term Woosies. I use that term all the time to describe our current government, haven’t been a racist yet for it, so were okay with Woosies…for now :-)

Please update me about the issue at Columbia. I was trying to answer someone at Breitbart in that article. I said something about he may have been in Pakistan during that time, and that no one knew him at Columbia. Isn’t that what Dr. Manning found out?

I can’t state all of it, but FOX back in 2008 interviewed 400 people from Columbia and none remembered him. Wayne Root, who graduated the same year he supposedly did, said Barry wasn’t at the 20-year reunion and nobody who was remembered him, either. As for this list from Breitbart, as we said above, what’s the provenance? What’s that list supposed to be? What’s the date of the information? How is it showing us that he had a BA FROM Columbia? When was it produced and by whom? How did Breitbart get it? REPLICATION–the key to proving something is true. Independent analysis, too. He might have been in Pakistan because there was a lost year or months, iirc. From when he supposedly started there. You can review the Genevieve Cook post, too. Seems there was some discrepancy in the times they allegedly shared apartments. When he went back to Hawaii for holidays, etc. Don’t quote me because I’m going from memory and mine isn’t great lately. All this stuff suddenly coming about about his supposed Columbia days is suspicious. Now Breitbart claims to be debunking the allegation that he only went to the Columbia “college” and not the university. Based upon what? I was intending to go back and look for the source of that allegation, which has been long-standing and which did seem credible. Could he have been on some kind of foreign exchange trip TO Pakistan for school? As an internship or something like that? I do bet that he was there when his mother was there, too. He allegedly lied when he said he stopped off to see his mother in Indonesia on the way to Pakistan. But SAD wasn’t in Indonesia then.

I think Dr. Manning has said if Obama went to Columbia, he and the other black residents would have known him. He would have been part of the black community. They scoured everything they could find and couldn’t find one single document showing Obama’s name. Dr. Manning lives there and had access to “public” information.

Mara Zebest, Tom Harrison, and Karl Denninger are three that I can think of now. Google them to be sure I am right. Douglas Vogt was another. A really good one is quoted in Linda Jordan’s post on WTPOTUS, and I forget his name. He did a video. One gave an affidavit in Georgia’s lawsuit with Orly, and I believe it was Doug.

This is too funny!
Obama’s Manger: What if Kenya’s a Little Town in Hawaii?
May 20, 2012

Who the heck was Obama getting to hawk his books back in the ‘90s when he was doing coke and weed and hanging out with Marxists? Whoever it was, it is now causing quite a bit of consternation for BHO’s camp because they put on his bio that he was born in Kenya. This publication, apparently, even confused Michelle about Barack’s country of origin, as this video points out.

Kenya? Now, what kind of crap publishing company gets the nation of origin wrong for a rising star and does not correct it until 16 years later when he begins his bid for the Oval Office? Huh? I’ll tell you what kind of company: a sloppy company … a sloppy, sloppy company. Or … or … a racist company. Someone get Sharpton on this now that the Trayvon case is unraveling, as this could be fresh investigative fodder for the revered sleuth named Al.
